1.Gene polymorphisms predict efficacy and toxicity of chemotherapy for colorectal cancer
Tumor 2010;(2):164-169
Objective:The efficacy and toxicity of anticancer drugs differ in different tumor patients. It could not meet the requirements of optimization of tumor treatment if only under the guidance of clinical and pathologic characteristics. More and more attention is focused on individualized therapy based on individual gene profiles. It has been identified that gene polymorphisms are responsible for different outcomes of individuals. Gene polymorphisms, including sequence polymorphism and single nucleotide polymorphism, will decrease the clinical efficacy of chemotherapeutic drugs or increase adverse reactions by influencing the expression or activity of the corresponding proteins. In recent years several gene polymorphisms related to drug metabolism, transportation, or inactivation may affect the outcomes of chemotherapy and the frequency of adverse reactions. Identification of the polymorphism genes is important for individual therapy for tumor patients.

Thyroid cancer is uncommon in children and adolescents. This article analyzed the current data and stated the treatment progress of the thyroid cancer in children and adolescents. Even though in the advanced stage at diagnosis, the prognosis is good for pediatric patients. Surgery is the treatment for pediatric thyroid cancer. Although there is no optimal surgery recommendation, most surgeons preferred total and (or) subtotal thyroidectomy. Hemi-thyroidectomy could also be considered in the low-risk patients with small unifocal tumors. We recommend routine central compartment clearance in pediatric thyroid cancers to reduce the local recurrence. Radioactive iodine therapy is also recommended in particular pediatric patients. Recurrences after treatment in childhood thyroid cancer may take place over a long period of time. Therefore, a life-long follow-up is mandatory.

0.05);the frequencies of IFN-? gene +874 site T and A allele showed significant difference between case group and control group(P0.05).Conclusion T allele of IFN? gene+874 site might have a relationship with generation of ovarian cancer,TT genotype might be susceptibility genotype for ovarian cancer.

Objective To investigate the association between polymorphism of protein C inhibitor(PCI)gene G10877T and male infertility,and provide theoretical basis for treatment of male infertility.Methods PCR and sequencing technique were applied to detect PCI gene G10877 T polymorphism in 53 normal control and 102 male infertility.Results There were three genotypes of wild type(G/C),hybridization mutation(G/T)and pure mutation(T/T).The analysis of sequencing indicated that in sperums of a proportion of the male infertile patients,TGG in PCI gene G10877T mutated into TGT.The contrast of BLASTB indicated that this mutation made Trp in 271 position change into Cys.Compared with control group,TT genotypic frequency and T allelic frequency in male infertility group had significant differences(P

Objective To study the clinical efficacy and plasma concentrations of tacrolimus in renal transplant patients. Methods Kidney transplant patients were randomly divided into experimental group and control group. Control group was treated with cyclosporin A, experimental group was treated with tacrolimus. Clinical efficacy of two groups was compared,and plasma concentrations of tacrolimus the experimental group were tested at different periods. Results Compared with the control group,experimental group D-BILI and the concentration of T-BILI significantly lower,rate of acute rejection and infection significantly reduced,the differences were statistically significant (P <0.05) ;At the same time,in the experimental group,blood concentration of FK506 in patients at different periods after surgery were different. Conclusions . Tacrolimus was expected to develop ithe main immunosuppressant, its blood concentration factors of further research would be beneficial for to provide a reasonable regimen the clinical organ transplant patients.

Objective To investigate the diagnostic value of ultrasound elastography hardness score and area ratio to identify benign and malignant lesions.Methods 90 patients with breast lumps were selected and divided into the malignant and non -malignant group according to surgical pathology diagnosis,they were 40 cases (a total of 45 tumors)and 50 cases (a total of 57 tumors),two groups of patients were detected in ultrasound elastography,anal-ysis of imaging hardness ratings and area ratio and other information,to investigate the clinical diagnostic value. Results The ultrasound elastography of 50 cases with benign tumor were 0 -2 point,7 cases were 3 -4 point, 7 cases with malignant tumors were 0 -2 point,38 cases were 3 -4 point,the difference between the two groups were statistically significant (χ2 =28.55,P <0.05);The average area ratio of benign tumor was (1.01 ±0.27),malignant tumors was (2.28 ±1.68),the difference between the two groups was statistically significant(t =9.22,P =0.001);the sensitivity,specificity,accuracy of elastography hardness rating in diagnosis of malignant breast tumors were 87.72%,84.44%,86.27%,the area ratio method were 85.96%,86.67%,86.27%,joint inspection of the two groups were 96.49%,95.55%,96.08%,joint inspection had obvious advantages,the difference was statistically sig-nificant(χ2 =16.24,13.58,P <0.05).Conclusion Ultrasound elastography hardness rating combined area ratio has a higher accuracy rate for differentiating benign and malignant breast tumors.

With the support of World Bank ( WB ) and UK Department for International Development ( DFID) , China Rural Health Project ( hereinafter referred as Health XI Project) began to introduce the idea of performance management to 40 counties in 8 provinces in 2008 . The project implemented cyclic performance manage-ment strategies, including performance planning, performance communication, performance evaluation and perform-ance improvement. With the continuous improvement of performance as the goal, the project attempted to establish incentive mechanisms based on the performance of health care services. After five years of pilots in 40 counties, it has achieved good results in the aspects of improving the quality and efficiency of health care services, motivating the enthusiasm of health care managers and workers, etc. Moreover, it has successfully built several advanced counties with exemplary performance management and accumulated some experience, which provides reference and demonstra-tion for implementing performance management in other areas. The key experiences of implementing performance management of rural primary health care include taking health care quality as the core of performance, appropriately combining economic and non-economic incentives, encouraging personnel participation in performance management in order to ensure the sustainability of performance improvement, and effectively applying the ideology of systematic per-formance management in order to effectively enhance the management level of hospitals. The paper also puts forward some policy suggestions based on emerging issues during implementation of performance management.
